[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epsix:
Whoew... calm down no need to hate... the thruth hurts isn't it? This is not which phone is better. Just so many new phones are coming out and so many choices.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Software wise? NS runs Stock Android whereas the Vibrant runs on TouchWiz and runs on a RFS filesystem which heavily relies on Voodoo/OCLF lag fixes.

There's a huge difference. Also CM7 supports the Nexus S.

@epsix: Everybody hates you because you're simply attempting to "troll." You never used the Nexus S, don't judge a phone without spending at least three weeks using it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hnZ:
Ya, my Vibrant does more and looks better doing it, my Nexus is minutely faster. My Nexus relies on Voodoo for the screen colors. So your relies on argument is kind of not a problem at all, since the mod is out. Now when and if the Nexus gets 720p video recording then it will be brought up to standard and that point will be negated as well.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epsix:
I did less than a week. I just laughed while playing with it. And return that plastic crap.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
How does the Nexus S rely on Voodoo? It doesn't need Voodoo to fully function properly. I can care less about Voodoo Color, Voodoo Sound? Don't even use it as my media player so it has no affect on me. 2.3.3 Colors are simply fine.

The Vibrant relying on lagfixes requires it to disable lagfixes and re-enable to flash new ROMs depending on what ROM. That roughly takes about 3-5 minutes to disable/reenable the lagfix.

Video recording? I honestly don't even use it. A phone can only do so much, it's not a superpower device. If I'm going to record something, I'll use a video recorder. That's just how I feel, people will try and argue about this but whatever. I prefer dedicated devices for video recording / photos.

Photos and videos with a phone are just for casual things.

Oh yeah. Have fun being on a outdated Android version. When Gingerbread comes out. All Vibrant ROMs will be based off internal leaks with a closed-source kernel. That should be pretty fun. By the time the Vibrant gets the official Gingerbread, we'll have Ice Cream.

@epsix: haha alright. go back to your MT4G forum

People will always find something to complain about. Sorry but the Nexus S pros outweigh the flaws. If you don't like the phone, then stop trying to bash a phone. It's immature.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian6685:
If your on a vibrant, then why are you wasting your time in the Nexus forums? Go troll on the vibrant forums and tell someone who cares about how you use 720p recording to watch yourself

Nexus S
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hnZ:
Took me 3 days to return the MT4G after looking at that horrible screen.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hnZ:
Because I have a Nexus S and make mods and junk for it...

Voodoo isn't a music player...

And you mt4g noob: you sound like an ordinary fanboy, you pretend you have or had the phone.

Go back to your ****ty weak phone.

When you see a optimus 2x get 4500 in quadrant I might listen
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I never said voodoo is a music player. I said that I don't use the NS as a media player so it doesn't affect me. I can say that Voodoo does enhance sound and would make the NS a better media device with Voodoo.

And quadrant scores don't mean anything.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dario3040:
The rest of the post was directed to the idiot with the mytough 4g.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epsix:
My apologies SamSux fanboi. Looks who's the idiots that's paying 500 + while my phone is free. And can save that money for the next big thing. Oh by the way thanks for the dump CM7 is awesome and Desire S, Incredible S 2.

Do you always assume this bad? I wouldn't keep a MT4G if they gave it to me for free...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrbourque:
The nexus s is my first non HTC android phone, and I'm not gonna lie at first I was a little iffy about the phone but time and time again it has really impressed me... do I prefer HTC overall sure ...but I might even try the LG dual core as well...the phone being android is ultimately what matters...
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dario3040:
Hahahaha quite funny, because i paid 1200 dollars for my phone.

And i wouldn't take it if i got it for free.

U mad American fag?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dario3040:
Yesterday i tried the Optimus 2x in a store.

DO NOT BUY IT.

For real: It lags, its awkward to hold, its actually weaker than the Nexus S, its sound quality sucks, it feels cheap, its LG, the camera is bad, the screen is okay, but **** compared to the Nexus S.

For real, it ****ing sucks :eek:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrbourque:
Well thanks for the heads up on the LG lolol prolly wait a lil longer then
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I know right -.- its like a civil war. A ANDROID PHONE is a ANDROID PHONE, who cares. The real enemy is Apple's iPhone. People need to chill out.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hnZ:
Not all Android phones are created equal...so no an Android phone isn't an Android phone. Maybe if manufacturers put all of their proprietary apps on the market and all of them came with the same hardware and vanilla Android you could make that statement.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jrbourque:
Ur right not all android phones are created equal but each manufacturer has it's power phone that you can basically say are equal ...and the point behind the statement was point the hating to bb or iPhone

[General Questions and Answers] jcraven33:
I just did Gingerbread ROM and lost everything. Titanium backup is not working well and at this point I will just simply be happy with getting my contacts back. Problem is i did a sync before installing the rom and now after the rom my phone is not recognized on my computer and there is no htc sync with gingerbread like on the stock rom. There has to be a way to get it to recognize my phone I have already tried reinstalling sync. Very frustrated. I figured it would work just like before but nothing has since I installed the rom :-(
[General Questions and Answers] cjward23:
Htc sync will only work if you are running a sense based rom. Were your contacts not synced to your google account?

Did you do a nandroid backup before flashing the rom? If you didn't, learn from this and all ways do a nandroid before flashing anything. If you did do a nandroid, restore that backup run titanium again and double check that it did back up all your apps. And make sure you are signed in to your google account and that sync contacts is on, then after flashing the rom and signing back in to your google account your contacts will be automaticly resynced to the phone.

[Wildfire General] chubby65:
does anyone know how i can remove the stock messaging in cm7 and replace it with the one in wildpuzzle or can i remove it and replace with go sms
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
You can't install sense apps, and yeah you can install go SMS, I don't see the problem..., if you wanna completely remove the stock app, use adb to remove it or titanium backup.
[Wildfire General] chubby65:
tried removing with titanium backup how do i use adb to remove
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
Boot into recovery and mount system.

On terminal, type adb shell, then rm -r /system/app/Mms.apk
[Wildfire General] chubby65:
Tried that m8 but keeps saying access denied managed to delete it with root explorer but everytime I reboot it's still there
[Wildfire General] chubby65:
Could I replace the stock one with one from a non sense rom?
[Wildfire General] kevin2516:
the one from a non sense rom is the same as the one from cm7 :confused:

or do you mean the stock htc sms app, but you're using cm7... sooo... eh

and you shouldn't get access denied, it always works for me. duno what you're doing wrong.
[Wildfire General] chubby65:
Thanks anyway m8 looks like I'm stuck with it for the time being
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Dlnp22:
FINALLY, a suction cup that I'll NEVER have to worry about. This thing kicks tail.

A little bulky, but hey, I'm in a car, and I aint trying to put anything in my pocket.

SOLID.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Dlnp22:
Can't edit above- guess I'm still a n00b.

Clarification: I was referencing the HTC mount specifically designed for the T-bolt.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] r68camaro:
Is this the mount from Verizon?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] klisp:
U got a link?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] cwininger:
Mine from Verizon comes today. Ill post with some feedback. I was really happy with the one for the DX.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ktrinidad:
The car dock is great! Used it over the weekend. Integrated it with my radio, it works great. Tough to remove though. But in time, I guess it will loosen up a bit.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Dlnp22:
Yes. Verizon's. Apologies, I believe I had said "HTC mount" earlier. It's the one sold straight from vzw.

Still loving it. Hope they make one that will fit the extended battery, some day.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] m00nshake:
The car mount is great, got mine directly from Verizon corporate store. It comes with attachments to mount it to the windshield or the dash, but beware that the phone must be removed from most OEM cases (i have a body glove and a double case) as the phone is otherwise to bulky to fit in the dock.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] wfagan59:
Agree

Love the car dock. Wish it had an audio out, but most don't. The only grip I have, is with the tbolt. When i plug an aux cable from the phone to my radio, and I get a call, the mic will not work. I'm assuming the phone thinks it's a headset with a mic. My Vibrant worked with the aux cable plugged in, except for a few OC kernels. Anybody know if this can be changed? like a toggle? Searched the market for a mic toggle app, but got nothing.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] qwirked:
I used mine for the first time yesterday.. Phone was the DEVIL to get out or of the mount. and it vibrates alot.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] crazed_z06:
Yea, I like the mount, but it does seem to have a bit of vibration to it. I had a similar mount for the Droid X and it didnt vibrate this much.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Dlnp22:
Known issue, no fixes......yet. Though SOMEone said they could get their iphone ear buds to work(mic on phone works when buds plugged in)
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ktrinidad:
Suggestion, at bestbuy, there is a mic that you attach to the the phone and can be attached to another 3.5mm aux in of your car. I have it and it works well. Its a generic dynex mic.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Stevez48:
What I found after like a week, and maybe I am just not too observant, but the top clip flips up, and gets completely out of the way. Then in pops in and out much much easier. I agree though it does vibrate a bit. Could be due to the weight of the device?
[Thunderbolt Accessories] daavy:
user error

yeah i was having a problem with the thing actually staying on the window.. but it was my fault, i wasnt doing it right... after everything got tightened down and i was using it the way it was intended... its pretty stable.. and the main camera is not obstructed so you can shoot video while driving.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] gsxr1kmatt:
+1 I'm VERY disappointed with how much it vibrates. and I'm in a brand new truck.

My OG droid car mount didn't vibrate at all.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] TheSlyWolf:
I posted a review on this a week or two after the phone came out.

The usb wears down after using it a bit and it comes out fairly easily.

I rarely get vibration and I'm in a 2003 Grand Cherokee...dont think its a matter of how new or old your vehicle is...more than likely its a matter of how your vehicles suspension is designed.

Suction cup is solid, havent had it fall off yet.

It is a bit bulky and its too bad it wont work with any cases or an extended battery.

I got a 6' cable from monoprice and ran it behind the dash so it looks fairly clean.

Just wish you could modify the stock car panel with a couple more items but oh well, in due time i suppose. *Just found a download for google car home, nice customization, looks just like the stock and it seems to be working fairly well. It's a little laggy when adding non-car shortcuts to the screen.*

But up to date, I love it, use it almost every day.
[Thunderbolt Accessories] ilogik:
The car dock kicks ass, too bad google maps sucks. I drive from NY to Philadelphia occasionally and use Garmin. After I got the dock I thought hey I don't need Garmin I'll just use the phone. Well a trip that takes me 2.5 hours ended up being a 3.5 hour trip because of google maps retarded routing..... /rant over
[Thunderbolt Accessories] Dlnp22:
Strange, I had the opposite problem.

I'm driving a junker toyota tercel that needs new shocks/struts(have to put in neutral at stop lights so my teeth stop chattering).

My OG Moto Droid Mount(from Moto) rattled like a mother. This Verizon tbolt mount doesn't whatsoever.
[EVO 4G General] AbsolutZeroGI:
A month ago, the fasted I could download a file was roughly 750 kb/s. Today, I his 1.2MB and stayed there for a little bit. That's almost a 500kb/s increase.

We've had 2 PRL updates since I last tried and the rumor that Sprint has been beefing up its 4g network.

I can notice it, anyone else?
[EVO 4G General] kellybrf:
i usually get 5-8mbps since it first started showing up
[EVO 4G General] cMeka:
I can definitely agree!
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
PRL updates have NOTHING to do with speeds ON the sprint network. They only tell the phone what towers to roam on when roaming, thats it.

As far as 4g speeds in Columbus, the last 3 times I was there for work, I could easily pull in 6mbps down, and about 3mbps up. Although the signal strength was very spotty though.
[EVO 4G General] m4xwellmurd3r:
What's your 3g speeds like if your 4g is that slow? I average 1.2 on my 3g
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:

[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Zythyr:
I am currently running a NAND Android build on my HD2.

I want to test out WP7. Is there a SD card build for WP7 instead? I don't want to erase my current NAND Android build, so is there a way to run WP7 from SD card instead?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
nope, not yet, and in my opinion not very likely either
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] flame10:
Was looking for something similar
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Beefheart:
Seriously, you're not currently missing much, just stick with Android until the numerous WP7 issues on the Leo are fixed. Don't hold your breath though, there hasn't been much in the way of fixes since DFT released the original rom nearly three months ago. For example, multitouch (or the lack of it) is a major dealbreaker for me.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] rwholden:
Isn't the multitouch a HW limitation? i expect to ever see that working correctly...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
its unlikey that there will be any fixes for anything, and to be honest its not an issue anyway, multi touch works fine, you just have to adapt a little.

I used WM then moved to Android for my social dealings and finally ive moved to a 100% WP device and you cant pay me to move back, wp is a rock solid OS that works well, I used to mod the crap out of WM and droid OSs now i really dont feel the need to and i dont miss not being able to do it either, its very odd to start with but a couple of weeks later and im converted!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] StuartMaher:
Gotta agree with Dazza. I've used it exclusivley for three months now. It is nearly flawless. There are a few points where I know I am hitting limitations due to the hack (Multi touch works, just not flawlessly). but these are no more, in fact less so than the flaws I always seemed to hit running android and there is no comparison to old WM builds. Even with the awesome ROM's that were available towards the end.

Even without NoDo or Mango, even with multi touch that will never be more than 2 point and sometimes be slower to respond then I would like, this will see me through to my next upgrade when I'll get whatever the latest WP7 iron is and my HD2 will be nailed to my wall in homage to the most ground breaking phone I can remember. even 2 years later it's versatility keeps it in the game!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] XPiemaster:
It technically is and isn't. HTC says that the HD2 can support more than 2 point multitouch, but the software limits it to 2. But that is for Windows Mobile 6.5! So, in theory, it can be fixed, but the process to do so is not worth it.

And if you really want to, you can run NAND Windows Phone 7 and SD Android together ;)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Beefheart:
Works fine? No it doesn't. You have to press your fingers on the screen at exactly the same time for it to be recognised. This makes playing multitouch games almost impossible and makes other multitouch features within the OS (browsing and photo viewing for example) a chore at best.

Still, if you're happy with it that's all that matters.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] zarathustrax:
HTC doesn't say it supports for the 2-point multitouch. One random customer service person that works at HTC who probably didn't know what they were talking about doesn't count as HTC saying that.

Every dev that has worked on the touch screen or drivers for it have said its a hardware limitation of 2 point... and it's not even true, full 2point touch... that touch sensor was actually only designed to do pinch to zoom, but the clever devs were able to write drivers that allow us as close to real 2point multitouch we'll get on the HD2. But there's the problem of if your 2 fingers get close to the same axis line, it will register them as on the same line. That happens with our touch screen because it was designed for only pinch to zoom type multitouch originally.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
thats very much open to ones needs, I dont really play games so for me, once you adapt your fingers to hit at the same time there isnt an issue.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] d16soda:
Too much hatin' going on here... or should I say pessimism?

Everyone just remember how TERRIBLE android was when it was first ported to the HD2. As for WP7, the first build I tried after 3 months is almost FLAWLESS. It is so fast, smooth, you can get Live services running in a few moments with just a few tweaks AND you can dual boot with Android. I see WP7 improvements on the horizon.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
im glade you do, i dont, but o be honest there is very little id want changed, bar wp7 updates, actual hd2 compatibility updates are unlikely to change in the near future
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Zythyr:
Thanks for the reply guys. I upgraded to Gingerbread and find it very stable with improved performance. I am no longer interested in WP7...
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] treo...not!:
Good for you, OP. I used WP7 for a few weeks, but it was too slow, ate too much of my battery even on standby, had no decent free nav, had few decent apps that I needed, was horribly hamstrung, and offered an abominable web surfing experience. On the positive side, it was smooth as silk and the boot time was amazing.

I think it still has potential, but I'll wait for WP7.9 or whatever they'll call it. I live in the present and I can't waste time using an OS because of what I think it can be in the future.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] farcry27:
I couldn't be bothered so much about multitouch, my Android has a that irritating zoom in icon on the web and pics anyway, I want to try WP7 but switch back to a NAND Droid when I feel like it. So seriously a WP7 SD version would take the cake.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] orangekid:
or you can back up your android ROM via CWM, so when you want to go back to Android after you check out WP7 you can just restore your nand droid via cwm in like 5 minutes.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JPxM0Dz:
Ok this is my second attempt to get an answer for the issues I'm experiencing.

Hopefully someone out there knows whats up and can give me a real solution.

I will pay the person $40US via PayPal if you can help me solve the issues listed below.

Here we go...

I can flash any rom or kernal successfully, however once booted I can not restore TIBU or install anything from market. When I click ok on download at market is does nothing, just allows me to repeatedly click on download icon. But never begins download. The second issue is if I try to restore backups using TIBU, they never install, just sit there as if they are installing, but never do. Also if I try to install any apps sitting on my ext-sd, they do the same as TIBU, just sit there showing they are installing, but never do.

Having said all that! If I flash to stock JF6, everything works fine, no issues whatsoever.

Now I have repeated this process at least a dozen times with no changes. I have flashed just about every custom rom with the exact same results. But again, flashing back to stock, zero issues.

Please do not suggest I run market fix, as this does not explain my other issues with TIBU or installing apps from ext-sd.

Others have suggested using android id changer after I have installed custom rom, the issue there is I can never install it from market after I have flashed custom rom because of the above issues.

Please help, this is driving me crazy and thanks in advance to those that know what's going on and can direct me to a solution.

NOTE: Yes I do a Master Clear & Clean Dalvik cache after every flash !! After flashing to stock, I can root and modify settings file under dbdata to allow third party apps with no issues. All issues are directly related to custom roms only!
